Re: Match Thread Saints vs Hawks
How poor a selection has Abbott been! He cant even beat OBrien in the ruck. Our defence is atrocious all have their heads up their backsides. Howard has been poor for weeks - I cant believe we didnt bring Roberton in for this game.

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Hawks
That’s because he’s not up to AFL standard. We are carrying two blokes in him and Marsh who are not up to it.

This team kicked 7 goals against the worst team in the comp 5 days ago.

Marshall playing as key forward, but Abbott is giving absolutely nothing in the ruck. He needs to lift.

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Hawks
Sorry folks - this is my fault. In my Father’s Day FaceTime meeting today with my family, I mentioned it was going to be a great day as the Saints should have a big win. You think by now I would have learnt. Mea maxima culpa

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Hawks
The directions should be to run and carry into the forward line, not bombing it long.
And if they do have to kick long, then at least kick it away from the defenders.
We should, SHOULD, be able to outscore them in the second quarter, but we have to pay Frawley, Gunston, Shiel and Breust more respect, and Abbott needs to settle down and just concentrate on trying to beat O'Brien in the ruck.

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Hawks
No, Costello was too short. He could however comfortably play whatever role Kent is meant to be playing .freely wrote: ↑Sun 06 Sep 2020 2:43pmJoffa Burns wrote: ↑Sun 06 Sep 2020 2:32pm Abbott at the centre bounce, maybe better off with Costello![]()

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Hawks
Are there still Geary defenders out there?

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Hawks
Put Ryder in the ruck and take the heat out of the match, would be my strategy.

As ex-president Peter Summers said:
